Young Lanarkshire dancers head to Dance World Cup in Spain
Dance Elite Studio will represent Team Scotland and send 31 talented youngsters to the competition.
Young dancers from Rutherglen and Cambuslang are set to their country in the prestigious Dance World Cup.
Dance Elite Studio will represent Team Scotland and send 31 talented youngsters to the competition in Burgos, Spain.
From July 3 to 12, they will join 120,000 dancers from 73 countries showcasing 64 dance routines across lyrical, commercial, hip hop, jazz, acro, ballet and contemporary.
The Team Scotland kit, exclusively sponsored by Lenovo UK, was recently unveiled at their Cambuslang studio.
While Lenovo UK is the sole kit sponsor, numerous local businesses have also supported the team, including McKenzie Construction, ISG Flooring, Commsworld, Calculo, The Freight Club, The Ritz Bar, Taylor Wimpy, Pacitti Jones, Robert Bell Decorators, Synergy, Dickson Chemist, McGlad Flooring, Heartbox Scotland, Duffy Toshner and Norit UK.
Since qualifying in December, the dance school has embarked on a significant fundraising and sponsorship campaign, successfully raising an impressive £20,000 to support with the cost of attending such a huge competition.
Principal coach and owner Amy Hart expressed her gratitude, saying, 'We could never thank our sponsors enough for the support they have given us.
'Our team has worked tirelessly over the last six months, spending hundreds of hours in the studio week in and week out. I am extremely proud of the hard work and dedication each and every one of them has shown.
'My team of dedicated coaches have worked very hard with the girls, and we cannot wait to see them all shine on the world stage.'
